## Description

Tensor Elite belongs to the new generation of popular inflatable sleeping pads from the American brand NEMO, tested on long-distance trails. With a thickness of 7,6 cm and an R-value of 2,4, the Tensor Elite is perfect for sleeping outside in a tent or under the stars from warm spring to autumn. This sleeping pad stands out mainly for its low weight and packability – it's currently the lightest inflatable sleeping pad in its class on the market!

## Why is this product exceptional?

The lightest and most packable three-season inflatable sleeping pad on the market!

inflatable sleeping pad, three-season, mummy shape, 10D Cordura Nylon Ripstop fabric, patented Apex™ baffle construction, 1 insulating layer of Thermal Mirror™ aluminum film, quiet (doesn't crinkle much), well-designed valve, stuff sack, pump sack, and repair kit included

## NEMO Tensor Elite

**New for 2025.** Tensor Elite inflatable sleeping pad is the latest and lightest addition to the popular and best-selling Tensor range from the American brand [NEMO Equipment](/b/nemo). NEMO sleeping pads have been showing up for several years alongside sleeping pads from [Therm-a-Rest](/b/therm-a-rest) among the top most used and popular sleeping pads on long-distance trails, such as [Pacific Crest Trail](https://www.halfwayanywhere.com/trails/pacific-crest-trail/pct-gear-guide-2023/#sleeping-pads).

NEMO Tensor Elite offers a **unique balance of thermal insulation** (R=2,4) a**nd low weight** (240 g in the Regular version) **for three-season use**. It's the perfect companion for most long treks from the warmer spring through to autumn. Right now, it's **the lightest inflatable in its class in the world**.

If you're looking for a slightly more durable three-season sleeping pad with the option for an extended or wider version, we recommend checking out [NEMO Tensor Trail](/p/nemo-tensor-trail) (R=2,8). If you need a year-round sleeping pad, check out [NEMO Tensor All-Season](/p/nemo-tensor-all-season) (R=5,4).

## Materials and construction

The top part of the sleeping pad is made from ultralight, touch-friendly material **10D Cordura Nylon Ripstop**. Even though it's a very high-quality and durable material, you always need to be careful when choosing a sleep spot (no sharp rocks, thorny plants, etc.). If you don’t have perfect sleeping conditions, you can also use a thin pad under the air mattress just to be safe – [EVA foam sleeping pad](/p/eva-foam-pad-3-mm). The material has certification [**bluesign®**](https://www.bluesign.com/en/), which means that the sleeping pad was made in a way that's safe for the environment, the workers, and its users.

The inside of the inflatable sleeping pad features the **patented Apex™ baffle construction**, which uses less material while providing stable body support and even weight distribution. Inside each partition, there is one layer of thermal insulation made from ultralight **aluminum foil called Thermal Mirror™**, which effectively reflects body heat and contributes to an overall **R-value of R=2,4**.

Thanks to the material used and the well-thought-out internal construction, the **creaky and crinkly noises that you might encounter with various other inflatable sleeping pads are significantly reduced**. Because of this, you can sleep undisturbed, not just you, but also your buddies and neighbors at the campsite.

## Technical specifications

The NEMO Tensor Elite sleeping pad is designed to be as light as possible. That's why it's made in just one shape (mummy) and in a standard (regular) or shortened version (short), which is perfect for those with a shorter height or true minimalists who prop their feet up with their backpack. So, there are no rectangular shapes, wider, or extended models available.

**Regular version** (standard length):

- Weight of the sleeping pad – 240 g
- Weight with accessories – 330 g
- Dimensions (length x width x thickness) – 183 x 51 x 7,6 cm
- Packed dimensions – 14 x 8 cm

**Short version** (shortened length):

- Weight of the sleeping pad – 215 g
- Weight with accessories – 305 g
- Dimensions (length x width x thickness) – 160 x 51 x 7,6 cm
- Packed dimensions – 14 x 7 cm

## Accessories

With the sleeping pad, you'll also get a repair kit, a Velcro strap for securing the folded pad, a small storage sack, and a big inflatable Vortex bag for quick and easy inflation.

Using an inflatable bag not only makes inflating your sleeping pad way easier and faster, but it also saves your breath, which is super handy, especially when you're sleeping at higher altitudes. Plus, with the inflatable bag, you're not filling your sleeping pad with humid air, which can lead to mold growing inside the pad over time.

To make inflating your sleeping pad even easier, you can grab a pump [Flextail TINY pump 2X](/p/flextail-tiny-pump-2x) or [Flextail ZERO pump](/p/flextail-zero-pump), with which you’ll have it done effortlessly.
